Answer:

In subduction of one plate over another on the basis of weight

Explanation:

When two plates moving and colliding, the plate with higher mass will subduct below the plate with lower weigh and lighter would remain above. generally continental types of plates are lighter in weight and oceanic plates are heavier.

Ex:- The collision of Eurasian plate and Indian plate. Indian plate is below and Eurasian plate above and formation of Himalaya

exis [7]

Answer:

0.066m

Explanation:

use the formula

velocity= frequency × wave length

344m/s = 5200Hz× wavelength

wavelength = 344m/s/5200Hz

wavelength = 0.066m(to 2 sig fig)

What is 1/12+7/9 hj​
Umnica [9.8K]

Explanation:

\frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  \\  \\  =  \frac{1 \times 3}{12 \times 3}  +  \frac{7 \times 4}{9 \times 4} \\  \\  =  \frac{3}{36}  +  \frac{28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{3 + 28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{31}{36}  \\  \\   \huge \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \:  \frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  =  \frac{31}{36} }} \\

During a lab investigation, students added four 50 g masses to two boxes and arranged the boxes so that they were motionless on
IceJOKER [234]

When the resultant force is not equal to zero termed an unbalanced force. By procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.

<h3>What is an unbalanced force?</h3>

The forces operating on a body are known as unbalanced forces when the resulting force exerted on it is not equal to zero.

Unbalanced forces acting on the body, causing it to modify its state of motion. To further grasp the nature of imbalanced forces.

<h3 />

The following reasons by which we can understand the unbalanced force caused by the box.

Due to these two reasons, books will move up.

By adding another mass to box 2. The box becomes lighter. As the box becomes lighter the gravity force acting on the box will be less due to which the box easily can move up.

By removing the two masses from box 1. Due to which other become heavier other becomes heavier pulling it down causing box 1 one to go up.

Hence by procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.

To learn more about the unbalanced force refer to the link;
